I am a patron to a handful of Patreons. One is someone I used to read on Usenet, and I'm not doing it for a particular project in that case but as financial support to someone whose (non-fiction, unpublished) writing I enjoy. Two are periodic free things that I want to support continuing (a podcast and a website; neither has ads). The others are for access to specific content that is kept for Patreon subscribers only for some period of time; I could just wait, but I support the artists. I have pulled back on my contribution to some Patreons when I have lower income or greater expenses, and increased some when I get a raise.
I've tried to post in the communities but a lot are basically inactive (the creators don't participate much there). But all of them have public contact info and I've emailed some with ideas or suggestions when asked.
